Need Great Body Shop in NJ - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I am not far from Jersey City and need a body shop someone can vouch for and ideally post some pic's of their work. I am not looking for a shop someone thinks is good but one where you have had personal experience.

The job I need is actually pretty simple, I bought a Next Level Performance Dovetail Spoiler for my 2010 Camaro, it requires drilling 8 holes in my trunk lid, painting the inside of the holes to prevent rust, and mounting the spoiler as perfectly square/alighed as possible, it even comes with a drilling template/mask.

While it is easily in the DIY range, I don't want to risk it, but I also don't want some shop to screw it up so am looking for a shop with references from one or more people that have actaully had work done there.

Am I a little paranoid, yes, better that than a crooked spoiler or misdrilled holes or a spoiler flying off the car, and any other things that could go wrong.

The spoiler comes pre-painted in my cars color so the entire job is just mounting it square and clean.

Any suggestions? Anything in a 25 mile radious of Jersey City, I don't actually live in Jersey City but it is the most well know town in the area.

Thanks!

2 questions, have you had personal experience with them, and would you trust them to drill 8 holes in your new Camaro and mount a spoiler very true and clean?

Thanks!

Perhaps out of your 25 mile range I've been very satisfied with Fonzarelli's Collision and Auto Repair in Augusta, NJ http://www.fonzarellis.com/. Ask for Brian if you do call and indicate Tom with the Silver Camaro referred you.

For my RS they added the Hood Spears and Trunk Lid Blackout and '67 V-Flags. Brian is great to work with.

We first used them in late 2007 when a deer hit my wife's G6 Hard Top Convertible doing $7K in damage - they made it like new with GM parts and she's had no issues with the work done since.
